“But how did you meet Sergio then?”
“I thought this place was my mission,” said Ian. “A place to help omegas who couldn’t go into heat and to just cuddle them all night long. I didn’t think anything sinister or dark was happening.”
“Oh,” I said, listening intently. It was interesting to hear an alpha’s perspective on breeding omegas like cattle and what he thought.
“When I snuck into the Birthing Building and saw the true horrors of what was going on, I met Sergio, who was outside the building taking pictures,” he said. “I asked him why the hell he was doing that, and I guess he saw how freaked out I was to trust me with his secret.”
“And that’s how you joined his pack,” I whispered, and he nodded proudly.
“He’s a trustworthy alpha and brave as fuck,” said Ian in a low voice when we started to see the beach populating with alpha handlers and their omegas.
“I agree,” said Evan. “I was friends with Sergio before we both arrived here at the same time. Sergio is the one who found out about this place on a search for his mother, but he never found her.”
“Sergio’s mom was here?” I asked in shock. It was crazy to me that his own mother had stayed here.
I was starting to see them in a new light. Maybe they weren’t as conniving as I thought.
“He believes that’s the case,” said Evan. “It’s the only reason we ended up here. He didn’t tell me the specifics, but I was willing to support him as a friend in whatever way he needed.”
“That’s nice, what you did for him,” I said, blinking as the ocean water droplets hit my eyes. “I wish I could see my friends again.”
“You will,” said Ian, squeezing my hand comfortingly.
“I don’t think I ever will,” I said, eyes burning with impending tears. Then, in a lower voice, “Do you think you can help me see them again?”
“Let’s just say it’s in the works,” said Evan, kissing my forehead. His kiss was tender and soft, communicating to me that he cared, and my heart thumped in my chest.
“Just don’t forget me,” I said in a low voice.
“We most definitely won’t, and that’s a promise,” said Ian, and I blushed. I suddenly noticed Brett approaching us, his electric blue hair standing out from the crowd. My heart rate increased, and I slowed down. The alphas noticed this, immediately standing in front of me to block me from Brett’s view.
“Don’t be scared,” Evan quickly said to me, looking back briefly to check if I was okay.
“Brett, what do you need?” asked Ian when he approached. “Clearly, this omega doesn’t like you, just like all the other omegas. What did you do to her?”
“Nothing at all,” he said in his obnoxious weaselly voice. “You might want to consider sharing her with me. It’s not fair you get all the good ones.”
Evan growled from deep within his chest, and I could even see the back of his white shirt vibrating from the intensity of his growl.
“Leave, Brett,” said Evan.
“You’re going to regret it,” said Brett, threateningly. He sounded annoyed at the same time, and everything in my body screamed that he was a danger to me. I couldn’t see him, but my heart was still racing by the time he walked away from us.
Ian turned first and cupped my chin between his fingers.
“Did Brett ever do anything to you? You can’t exactly hide your emotions from us,” said Ian.
“His presence, that’s all,” I said quickly. “I heard bad things.”
The tension on his face eased, “Well, he won’t dare touch you. And if anything happens, he’s dead. But you’ll need to tell us if he does.”
I nodded, and Evan hugged me.
“You’re not like other omegas,” said Evan, pulling back and holding me by the shoulders. “I don’t want to leave your side even if I just met you. Don’t you feel like that about her too, Ian?”
“I mean, I wasn’t ready to admit it, but Evan is right,” said Ian, and my inner omega self did back flips, excited and overjoyed at the feelings she arose in the alphas. It was a natural response for me. A calling to join a pack that I never felt before.
“I’m glad you like me,” I said, twirling a strand of my hair that had come loose. For years, I had fended off asshole alphas, and I was way too afraid to admit my feelings whenever I met a decent one. “Could you both walk me to my room?”
